For his 12th year Anniversary, the KPWT had a great season with the arrival of new kiteboarding stars. Congratulations to the new 2010 KPWT Overall World Champion, Antoine Auriol from France (Freestyle and Wave).
Antoine is the most talented and respectable rider in the kiteboarding world. This is his First World title. Now he’s an iconic global kiteboarding star, one of the best kiteboarder in the history of his sport and he became a KPWT World Champion forever !
Antoine Auriol : "I’m really happy to win the 2010 season, because I am following the KPWT since 7 years, and I have always been at the 3rd place... For me, every year has been fantastic, and I have seen along the years the evolution of kitesurfing. Competing also gave me the opportunity to open my mind, to visit a lot of wonderful places, and to learn a lot...
So I really want to thanks my main sponsor Kiteloose, my agents Xavier Meignen and Emmanuel Aragon, Frédéric Gravoille from the KPWT, and also all my family and friends that are supporting me since the beginning. See you next year. Peace and Love !
